Oh my god! Everyone knows Bebo is an inferior copy of Myspace but that is such a rip off I have a website for my youth work which my OWN ex headmaster copied - maybe he works for bebo - hes the kinda guy i imagine uses bebo a lot if you get what i mean!!

I therefore am totally against web-plagurism and long to see the day of better online copyright!!

Great Article
Cheers

Facebook has an API -- http://developers.facebook.... Bebo currently does not.

I hate the wording: "What are you doing?"

Twitter is effective only when you deconstruct it, and type in anything but what yr doin'.

Nobody cares what anybody else is doing, unless the doing is instructive, insightful, linky. We only hope a tiny miniscule fraction will care what we think or belief or confess to.

Most Twitter addicts never read anybody else's tweet, except perhaps for an occasional glance at a tweet by a spouse, lover, partner, colleague, parent, child, neighbor, co-worker, or "celebrity" (see: End of Stardom, Rise of Everyone by Vaspers the Grate).

Twitter works when you violate it's strategy, when you move to the margin at type in what you're feeling, thinking, or linking to.

As in blogs, what you ate for lunch is a sucky topic and only idiots webcast such tripe. Unless you're eating tripe, then maybe we'd be interested in how to cook cow intestines or whatever that and headcheese is.

Links and insights and heads up are the only good tweets.

You go where the smart messages are. As of now, that is Twitter. Even right this moment, as it experiences server overload apparently, and graphics are disabled, and interface is slow, we are still loud and proud.

Is this a surprise? Did Twitter ever have any competitive advantage or barriers to entry? A revenue model even? You can't patent the process of sending messages. This is inevitable.

What makes me laugh is that if MySpace did this, everyone would be in up in arms accusing them of destroying Twitter. I doubt that MySpace will copy the feature - let's face it, they've only just caught onto the idea of photo galleries - but it is only when MySpace copies that the line will be drawn.

See, in Germany we now have 4-5 Twitter clones, more or less the same functionality.

The question here is though that maybe startups in the US might want to look a bit more into the international market and provide localized versions from the start. Of course we all do learn english here at school but many are nevertheless more inclined to use german (or in the european/worldwide context their native language).

(and one german service, texteln.de even now provided an API and they also do have more functionality like comments and the like. But then again I like the limits of Twitter somehow and maybe these make it what it is).

Does bebo and facebook offer an API like twitter?

OK, technically it was 6degrees or whatever, and probably something else before that. But if we go back that far, I guess we could say that Dodgeball was the first sociable mobile app to catch on.

I still prefer to use twitter, since they are first. Nothing beats the original.

Pete Cashmore — Sun, 29 Apr 2007 02:24:17 -0000

I don't think this is the same, really. I mean, Bebo already had a mass mailing option within the mail section, which does the same thing as bulletins. The choice of name and character limit certainly make you think this is more of a Twitter-type service than a bulletins service.

Re: Bebo Clones Twitter, Blatantly

Jose Hernandez — Sun, 29 Apr 2007 01:36:31 -0000

Myspace has had the "bulletin" feature for several years now. The presentation is different, but the functionality is essentially the same.

This is why I had a feeling Twitter would fail. All the other, genuine, social networks that actually have a large user base can, and have, easily added the same functionality to their already advanced set of tools.

Pete Cashmore — Sun, 29 Apr 2007 00:42:31 -0000

Maybe they did?
